We're Leavin' On a Jetplane

We're on our way to Utah. Yippee! We cannot wait to see Spence and the rest of the family too. And I will finally get to see baby Macey! See you soon.

From Snow? to Summer!

Finally, we have typical South Carolina weather. It has been warming up all week (not that any of you would think it was all that cold before) culminating in a beautiful 80 degree Saturday. The children played with the hose while I began to tackle the yard. And yes, the intent of this post is to make everyone jealous. Doesn't anyone want to move to the South with us? Spring starts in February and you will never have to scrape a window again. I don't think I even know where the defrost button is in our car. So just imagine being here right now enjoying "fun in the sun".

Our Snow Day

So as I predicted in my post yesterday, school was canceled due to the possibilty of snow. As it turned out, there were a few snow flurries late Sunday night but that is all. We stayed home all day and it looked like this. I thought I would post a picture of our "snow day" for you. Yes I know there is not a single flake in sight, and there wasn't one all day long. I wish you could see the sky in this picture, it is BLUE! I cannot believe they have canceled school twice this year for snow. Even the first storm (if you saw my January post) wasn't worth canceling school over. There was even a run on the grocery stores last night for milk and bread and other "needed" supplies. The last time school was canceled was in 2003. Apparently they think this is an exceptionally bad winter. Ha!

Valentine's Day

Oops again. I never posted our Valentine pics. We had a lot of fun decorating valentine cookies, but the part the children enjoyed the most was leaving cookies on doorsteps and then "doorbell ditching". I had told them about how much fun I thought it was when I was little and they wanted to try it too. Do you remember how challenging it was to get away at the Carr's house? Of course the Breckenridge's would have been worse, but I don't remember doorbell ditching their house... just flying down their driveway on our bikes. Ahhh, childhood memories. I hope my children will have as fond memories as I do. Well Happy Belated Valentines Day!

Snow?

While most of the country is anxiously awaiting spring and warmer temps our house can't wait to see a few more powdery flakes. We are probably the only people who are excited for snow in March.This is what we expect to get between Sunday night and Monday morning. Wonder if they will cancel school again....Remember in January they canceled school here because of the threat of snow...Only in the south. Mother Nature - Bring on the snow!!
